Republican State Platform Pledges Economy and Tax Reform
The platform asserts strict economy under President Coolidge, touting a $2.0 billion government cut and 50,000 jobs reduced, cutting the public debt by $2.6 billion. It calls for tax reform to curb the emergency tax burden, opposes further tax exempt securities, supports cooperative marketing for farmers, stronger export markets, railroad rate changes, and federal highway funding.
